I can’t remember the last time that I was this excited for a regular season college football game. Both teams are coming off a bye and are currently ranked #1 and #2 in the country. The game will be played in Tuscaloosa at night, which is a very difficult place to play.

Both of these teams have fantastic personal. For LSU, keep an eye out for the “Honey Badger” Tyrann Mathieu, who is an undersized Corner that always seems to make a big play. I also think he has the coolest nickname in sports. For people that don’t know, the Honey Badger has no fear and will attack just about anything. You also have to watch out for Reuben Randle. He is the big play receiver, for the Tigers who can change the game on one pass reception.

On Alabama’s side watch out for the starting running back, Trent Richardson, the Human Wrecking Ball. This guy is an absolute monster and the first guy to get to him never tackles him. He is averaging 6.6 yards per carry so far this season. I like Alabama to win this one 23-13, Too much talent on their defense and just enough offense to get it done.
